Totally with you. Cute idea but pales in comparison as a listening experience to Pandora.
However - if they can get some brand-name DJs on there with a known style (or grow some) I think the value prop changes for me. Right now it's "experience what it's like to be a cool dj!" Which is great for the dj but bad for everyone else in the likely event that the current dj is not in fact a 'cool dj'

- pavel_lishin 15y agoWell, if enough people click "Lame", the song will be skipped, and hopefully the DJ would get the hint. > Right now it's "experience what it's like to be a cool dj!" Sad but true. "Look at me, I have a macbook with an iTunes playlist, and I clicked 'play' at a bar! I'm a real DJ, now!"
- brunoc 15y agoI think you're underestimating the 'curating' aspect of DJing. There's no skills involved on turntable.fm other than song selection. Picking the right song at the right time or something new that people find exciting is the biggest payoff in DJing for a lot of people.
